Luce Couillet
Luce Couillet studied product design at ESAD de Reims, before focusing on textile design at ENSCI Les Ateliers in Paris, from where she graduated in 2010. Specializing in textile materials and products, she established Matieres Ouvertes, a research workshop, in 2011. Couillet maintains a large collection of fabrics which she handpicks both for their technical properties and aesthetic qualities. Driven by her passion for innovation and low tech R&D, she uses artisanal weaving techniques to compose an experimental material library, which she puts to the service of various industries: couture, interior architecture, as well as sporting and medical equipment firms.
